| kees | sforshee: any chance you can take the patch for LP: #1766052 ? | 15:41 |

| ubot5` | Launchpad bug 1766052 in linux (Ubuntu Bionic) "Incorrect blacklist of bcm2835_wdt" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1766052 | 15:41 |
| sforshee | kees: we'll have to get acks, but the patche looks like it's missing a pipe | 15:47 |
| * kees covers his face | 15:48 | |
| kees | I'll send a v2. | 15:48 |
| sforshee | thanks, I'll ack it when it comes | 15:49 |
| sforshee | replying to the original | 15:49 |
| kees | v2 sent | 15:51 |
| kamal | kees, sforshee: it feels icky to me, stuffing that raspi-specific exception into the generic 2-binary-arch.mk (and that it presupposes that no other platform would build bcm2835_wdt anyway (?)) | 16:29 |

| sforshee | kamal: the driver depends on ARCH_BCM2835 so we're only talking about arm64 | 17:02 |
| sforshee | and we don't really have a way to say "don't blacklist only if installing on raspi" | 17:02 |
| sforshee | at least none that I know of | 17:03 |
| kamal | sforshee, yeah, I don't see any already-existing better solution either, but IMHO, that "don't blacklist this specific driver" should be encoded in raspi2's abi somehow -- not just hardcoded in 2-binary-arch.mk | 17:08 |
| kamal | *in raspi2's abi dir somehow | 17:09 |
| sforshee | kamal: this is the generic arm64 kernel not the raspi2 derivative | 17:09 |

| kees | kamal: One idea I had was to not blacklist watchdogs with hardware aliases, since they're _supposed_ to be autoloaded. | 17:21 |
| kees | but then, what's the point of the blacklist? I don't understand why that exists anyway... | 17:22 |
| kamal | kees, it was apparently implemented to fix some other broken hardware: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1432837 | 17:25 |
| ubot5` | Ubuntu bug 1417580 in linux (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1432837 HP Proliant Servers Advices for Ubuntu Linux (cmdline, panics, firmware options)" [Undecided,Invalid] | 17:25 |
| kees | kamal: hmmm, well, I think the global blacklist is a bit too wide. :) | 17:34 |
| kamal | kees, I agree! | 17:36 |
| kees | also, it looks like systemd's systemd-load-module regressed from the /etc/init.d/kmod handling of explicitly loaded modules | 17:37 |
| kees | i.e. I used to be able to put modules in /etc/modules and they would get loaded. | 17:37 |
| kees | under 18.04, they're checked against the blacklist. | 17:37 |

| ubot5` | Ubuntu bug 1767172 in systemd (Ubuntu) "Regression: /etc/modules checked against blacklist" [Undecided,New] | 17:43 |
| maccam94 | I want to test a bugfix for perf, is there a handy command to rebuild just the linux-tools-<version>-generic package? (preferably with pbuilder/debuild) i have the source checked out already | 21:51 |
